Transparent pricing. No surprises.
You pay a card processor no matter what. With FieldTripHQ, that same fee also runs your entire trip. No monthly fee. No setup fee. No surprise fees on parents.
Two ways to run your trip
Pick whichever fits. You are never charged twice.
Collect payments through us
Families pay by card right in your sign-up. Money lands in your bank, and we add a small fee per registration. No fee to go live.
Card processing (2.9% + 30¢, at cost) + 3% capped at $10 per traveler.
Collect your own way
Taking cash, check, tuition, or your own payment link? No payments run through us, so instead you pay one flat fee to publish the trip.
Free for 20 or fewer travelers, then $99 to $1,499 by size.
If families pay through us
Every fee below includes card processing, so it is apples to apples. Compare a real trip:
If you collect your own way
One flat fee to publish the trip, scaled by how many are going. Nothing touches parent payments.
| Travelers | Flat license |
|---|---|
| 20 or fewer | Free |
| 21 – 49 | $99 |
| 50 – 99 | $249 |
| 100 – 149 | $499 |
| 150 – 249 | $799 |
| 250 – 499 | $1,199 |
| 500+ | $1,499 |
On a 150-person Washington DC trip that is $799, about 0.37% of the trip cost. Invisible against what the trip already costs, and never a cut of it.
The whole app is included either way
Competitors charge their fee for ticketing or payments alone. Ours runs the trip.
